Early Research Opportunities in Natural and Social Science
The Office of the Dean of the College has made stipends available for members of the sophomore class to carry out collaborative research projects with natural science and social science faculty mentors each year. Currently work-study funds can not be used for research positions. Since hands-on research is so important in doing natural and social science as well as in career planning, these funds make available academic year research opportunities as work-study positions. Infomation about the program can be found in the link below.
